Very Good

Please read.

First of all, if you've read any of the negative reviews, you've probably realized that the majority of them come from young children who obviously rented/bought the game after no more than glancing at the cover. So ignore those.

Anyways, what people tend to not realize at first is, this is NOT a first-person shooter.

It is a third-person strategy game, in which you will create/command units, customize your base(s), etc.

There are two different game modes, Campaign and Skirmish. Skirmish is pretty much a custom battle, and I'm pretty sure I don't have to tell you what the campaign is like.

PROS
- Decent Graphics
- Addictive gameplay
- Hours of fun for strategy game fans
___________________________________________
Cons
- Slow-Pased gameplay at times
- Limited customization in terms of bases
___________________________________________

So is it worth renting? Absolutely, If you're a fan of strategy games.

Is it worth buying? Rent it first, then see if you wan't to buy it.

Problem w/ Disc

This game shipped fine, arrived on time, and worked fine. I had previously rented this game from Block buster and had gotten far on the campaign, and then it said "that the disc could not be read". I found a large-ish break in the clear part of the disc in the middle, to about a centimeter into the disc. I don't know if this is what is affecting the game or what, but the rest works and i was otherwise please with the shipping and delivery. 10/10 service. 5/10 on the disc quality.

If you are not one for a real-time-strategy games also know as (RTS), then halo wars just ain't for you chump. Check this out, this game has it all for a starter into a whole new world. Now in halo wars 2 they can bring the player into a visual interaction of whats its really like to be a spartan and engage with a higher level of mental and emotional control. The Maps will be bigger more with more abilities and traits . I'm telling you buy the time the realest 3 ill be on there design team supporting there dreams to never let halo wars dies its awesome. Best halo RTS to date, till they make another one so i can Rate it too.

Till later day its ya boy Ashh9999 at the Dome on Youtub
